Default my new 2010

Just picked up my 2010 kona blue v6 today. Couple of questions:

Thinking of getting some simple aftermarket headlights that are direct swap outs. What kind has the most bluish tint in them?

Also is there a noticeable hp/sound gain from getting true duals on the v6 or would a axelback exhaust produce similar results?

Thanks guys!

Congrats on the new car!, I believe HID bulbs give off a bright light that appears blueish, regarding the exhaust only a slight increase in HP 10-15 perhaps, I'm planning on true duals for mine. Listen to videos on youtube for sound clips. Enjoy!!!

Exhuast adds no power, just sounds a ton better.

For $200 you can get an HID kit. However, please don't buy blue bulbs. Anything over 6000k is just ridiculous. 6000k has a hint of blue. The higher you go in the color spectrum the less usable light you'll have.

Don't do drop in HIDs. They are blinding.
